"So are there any real qualifications for this job? I’ve thought about it quite a bit over the last few weeks. And the only clear almost un-negotiable one I could come up with is that you have to be a guy. A guy who’s been in a serious and stable relationship for a significant period of time. That’s it. Every boss I’ve worked with well has met that criterion. Weird, huh?"
I've worked for quite a few women and I've found all to be excellent managers, except for one who really didnt like programmers (she said so herself). I've worked for quite a few jerks, and they were all guys. Maybe it is a gender related thing. Or maybe I'm not looking to have my hand held.
